Bring a swimsuit and footwear for boarding
Wear a swimsuit under quick‑on shoes for easy gets on and off the 11‑meter dive boat, plus non‑slip soles for docks and ladders.

Wear under clothing for quick changing and for comfort during the in‑water portion.

summer
Light towel and dry change of clothes
